After Wufu expressed respect for her decision, she spoke no more to Madam Zhou about Wu Lihong, not even a single word. Madam Zhou, on the other hand, dared not mention him either.
The carriage continued to travel through the Changan Imperial City, and Wufu only spoke to Madam Zhou about the prosperity of Changan City. She described the scene where nobles and blooming flowers were everywhere, talked about the hardships of ordinary commoners, and also about the life of ladies and young misses in large households, how they never ventured beyond the second gate, and so forth.
"...Mother, rest assured. I will buy two stable old nannies to attend to you. With their guidance, you'll come to know the customs of Changan," Wufu said with a smile.
